Joe woke up! He's doing a lot better and now so am I. I had a long chat with Julian too, and we're just fine. Joe says he still feels ill, but the doctors are even more positive than they were yesterday. As long as he doesn't get some sort of secondary infection, we should be okay. So I did make sure I was quite clean and free of TB germs

And he said you were very kind to go see him and that having your children speak so highly of you must be nice.

Margaret wants to see her, but where Lavannah is, my mother is. I don't know quite what to do there...

I know you're not asking me, so I don't feel bad in saying, "nope, me neither!" But I reckon asking Louise wouldn't go amiss.

I suppose I could do that, but if she goes crazy again and starts asking me when my sister is coming home from school so she knows when to tell the cooks to have dinner on, I'm blaming you.

Also? Your childhood kind of scares me.

Have fun with Spectre tomorrow! Not that I'd ever doubt you would.

Oh I will. I really will.

Thank you for going to see Samson in my absence. I'm very much looking forward to seeing the progress he's made, thanks to you and Mums. It's inspiring to see that even someone with such wrong things so ingrained in him can change.

It is. I'm proud of him. I think he's lonely and bored, and I'm not surprised. He still doesn't approve of the gayness. So you know...not talking about what you plan to do to me tomorrow night is probably prudent, but he didn't say a single thing about it in an offensive way this time either.

Yes, for a man with a mind as active as Samson's, I can't imagine his situation is entirely stimulating. Still, I'm sure we'll all do what we can to make things as comfortable as possible for him. I'm proud of him, too. I don't know if he'll ever approve as such - though of course I hope for that - but I do believe now that he can at least accept. And that's still coming a very long way.

It is coming a long way. It really is. I do think part of it is because he's just grateful to have someone to talk to, but at least he's listening. I told him I could bring him some books. Nice books not..like... "You're All Going to Hell, Ask Me How".
You should probably know he's not confined to the bed anymore either. He's stronger and while he's usually in a wheelchair, that's only because he gets tired. He can stand and walk around. Slowly, but he'll be getting strong with that too. I don't believe he's a danger, I just thought you should know before you saw him and found him up and about. I can be right there with you, he won't be able to hurt you.

I'm really, really glad Joe is okay, though. He's a very sweet man.

He is. He likes you!
